The coconut industry in the Solomon Islands is under threat from an aggressive beetle that's decimating plantations. With no sign of a quick fix, the pest is affecting the trade and threatening the livelihood of villagers who rely on coconuts.
Cripes there is always something. I was just reading about frogs been decimated from a virus introduced worldwide by air travel from the 1970s. Extinct some.of them..The world is a mess.
If The Greens are to be believed, it doesn’t matter anyway because the Solomons are already under water. I just checked google earth and I can still see them there, sooo...
